Rostec (Russian: Ростех - Rostekh), formerly Rostekhnologii (Russian: Ростехнологии) is a Russian state corporation (a non-profit entity type) established in late 2007 to promote development, production and export of hi-tech industrial products for civil and defense sectors. It brings together 663 entities which form 13 holding companies.[1] Eight holding companies operate in the defense-industry complex and five three of them are involved in civil sectors.[2] Rostec’s organizations are located in 60 constituents of the Russian Federation and supply goods to over 70 countries worldwide.[3]

Rostekhnologii was founded in 2007 as so called "state corporation", a very special type of legal entity in Russia. The state corporation is established by equity contribution made by the Russian Federation. The organization is headed by Sergey Chemezov.[4] Its headquarters are located in Moscow.

Full name in the Russian language is Государственная корпорация по содействию разработке, производству и экспорту высокотехнологичной промышленной продукции «Ростехнологии». Short name in the Russian language is Госкорпорация Ростех. Full name in the English language is State Corporation for Assistance to Development, Production and Export of Advanced Technology Industrial Product «Russian Technologies» (Rostec). Short name in the English language is State Corporation Rostec. Rostec was known as Rostekhnologii until December 2012.

History

On November 23, 2007, President Vladimir Putin endorsed the federal law[5][6] to establish Rostekhnologii, a state corporation, passed by the State Duma on November 9.[7][8] The state contributed 437 entities to the corporation’s capital.[9] Their total loss was RUR630 billion; 30% of such enterprises were in pre-crisis and crisis condition, 28 entities in bankruptcy proceedings, 17 had no business operations, and 27 had lost part of their assets or faced a material risk of such loss. Executives of some companies included in Rostec were in conflict with each other.[10] At the time Rosoboronprom, a company eventually merged with Rostechnologii, acquired the controlling interest in VSMPO-AVISMA in 2006, the on-going conflict between the shareholders exposed it to crisis. In October 2005, the Federal Financial Market Service (FFMS) suspended trades in common shares on the RTS Exchange and MICEX.[11]

Subject to the Growth Strategy, Rostec’s earnings will exceed RUR 2.1 trillion by 2020; and corporations’ output per employee will grow two times to RUR 4 million from RUR 1.9 million.[59]

One goal of Rostec is to increase its capitalization and launch an IPO of its most investment-attractive holding companies and organizations, among them are Russian Helicopters, Russian Electronics, Schwabe Holding, Concern Radioelectronic Technologies, United Engine Corporation and RT-Biotechprom.[60]

Rebranding

Corporate rebranding was announced December 21, 2012.[61] The corporation changed its name, logo and slogan. Rostechnologii was renamed Rostec. A new logo features an open square symbolizing a window to the world and a focus frame. It reflects philosophy of the corporate slogan “Partner in Development”.[62] The corporation also launched a new website in six languages (Russian, English, German, French, Spanish, Arabic and Chinese). The languages were selected with a view to those countries and regions which emerge as the corporation’s largest customers.[63] Rostec runs an official YouTube channel[64] and accounts in the social networks, such as Facebook,[65] Twitter,[66] Instagram,[67] and VKontakte.[68] “Communications and brand management increasingly affect the value-added of products,” Sergey Chemezov, Rostec’s CEO, said. “We need the international brand to commit global technology and financial leaders, successfully pursue corporate strategy and enhance corporation’s capitalization”.[69] According to The Wall Street Journal, rebranding[70] is designed to make the corporation more open.[71] The corporate rebranding project was implemented by Apostle, a strategic communications center, and Ilya Oskolkov- Tsentsiper, founder and co-owner of Winter, a UK agency. Graphic design was developed under supervision of Hazel Macmillan[72] (British Airways is among her latest projects.) The website was developed by SomeOneElse, a UK-based agency which projects include HSBC, Land Rover and BBC. The corporation spent $1.5 million for rebranding.[73]

Current projects

  • In 2008, Pirelli and Rostechnologii signed[76] the Memorandum on the principal conditions of establishing a JV to manufacture tyres for motorcars and trucks. Initially, the parties intended to commence construction of a special-purpose plant in Togliatti; however, the initial plan was revised.[77] In 2011, it was decided to launch production at the facilities of Sibur Holding[78] from which the partners purchased Kirovsky and Voronezhsky Tyre Plants. Total value of the transferred assets was €222 million. Currently, the parties are upgrading the production facilities. In January 2013, Voronezhsky Tyre Plant launched a new production line.[79] By 2015, the joint venture will manufacture 10.5 motocar and light truck tyres,[80] with the production volume reaching €500 million.[81]
  • In February 2008, JSC AvtoVAZ and French vehicle manufacturer Renault with an extensive input from Rostec signed an agreement on strategic partnership. The agreement launched a full-scale restructuration of the domestic vehicle manufacturer: Renault representatives were included in the top-management bodies of AvtoVAZ and its shares were distributed among the members of the consortium. The French company acquired a blocking stake in AvtoVAZ of 25% plus one share. In 2009, Renault and AvtoVAZ signed an additional agreement under which Renault made an asset contribution, including the transfer of technologies, production equipment and expertise valued at €240 million. The funds were allocated to modernization of AvtoVAZ’s production line and its upgrading to manufacture Renault and Nissan cars and new Lada models developed on the basis of foreign innovative technologies. This will allow AvtoVAZ to recover profitability and maintain the leading positions of Lada, Renault and Nissan brands on the Russian market. Since 2011, Renault-Nissan were negotiating buyout of the majority stake in AvtoVAZ with company’s co-owners Rostec and Troika Dialog. In May 2012, the parties reached a preliminary agreement to set up a joint venture to hold 74.5% shares in AvtoVAZ. They also agreed that Renault-Nissan Alliance would own 67.13% of shares. Their arrangements were legally executed in December 2012.[82]

Thus, Renault-Nissan and Rostec will contribute their interests in the plant (28%, 98% and 25%) to the joint venture which will further acquire 24.14% of shares owned by Troika Dialog. The actual stake of Renault-Nissan in AvtoVAZ will be 50.1% and Rostec’s stake 24.5% which is a blocking stake for the plant (according to historical distribution of AvtoVAZ share capital, only 94% of shares are actual voting shares, rather than 100%).[83]

  • In 2006, VSMPO-AVISMA agreed with Boeing[84] to set up a joint venture for machine processing of forgings for Boeing 787 Dreamliner[85] and Russian-made aircraft.

  • In November 2009, Rostec and Thales signed a memorandum on partnership and cooperation in electronic systems for the defence and airspace industries. The document regulates cooperation of two companies to share and use hi-tech developments in both defence and civil sectors.[94] In 2010, the parties agreed to expand their joint efforts and signed an additional cooperation agreement which contemplated establishment of a joint venture for development, manufacturing and post-sales support in air traffic management and integrated modular avionics for civil aviation. This joint venture was set up at the premises of Vologda Optical and Mechanical Plant focused on licensed production of thermal imagers Catherine FC and Catherine XP and long-range multi-function binoculars Sophie-MF.[95]
  • In 2010, Russian Helicopters, a part of Rostechnologii, reached an agreement with AgustaWestland, a part of Finmeccanica, to set up JV JSC HeliVert to assemble AW139 helicopters[96] at a new plant located in the village of Tomilino, Moscow Region.[97] Russian-made AW139 made its first flight on December 19.[98][99] In 2012, the parties also decided to expand their cooperation and signed a preliminary framework agreement on joint development, manufacture and distribution of a 2.5 ton state-of-the-art one-engine helicopter.[100]
  • Rostec is pursuing joint work with other foreign partners and Russia’s largest transport and energy companies, industrial groups, government agencies, local and regional bodies and constituents of the Russian Federation.
